OK.. I'm going to try and be serious for a moment

If anyone "hates" Arabs or the Muslim community it is:

(a) Israel - Simplied version is that there is a reason to convey "hatred" on the part of the Israel govt. (Tho.. dunno, but doubt that is a common view among the Israeli people). Israel seriously needs to put up a face of righteousness to cover the decades-long atrocities committed on others.

(b) The USA - Where the government teaches the population who to hate next - it could be the French one week, "Muslims" the next blah - whatever reason is in the best interests of the US that week. This is also aided by the many Israeli orgs in the US who have no more interest other than selfish reasons and to see the prolonged US support for the State of Israel. Why a US taxpayer tolerates this shit is unbelievable.


On your link - which presumably was designed to show how "Palestinian's are terrorists and hate the Jewish people" -

Why do you reply with a cut and paste segment of a youtube video which is not only loaded with propaganda, but clearly produced for propaganda purposes - complete with high-drama music track and the serious, but dramatic voice-over, to help add some credibility??

Extract of voice-over:
Quote:
"....with the stench of death in the air at the sight of a bomb blast. While the television shows bloody limbs flying thru the air, somewhere, someone is watching the same scene and rubbing his hands together in delight as he plans the next attacks.

Everyone feels the constant danger - you, your children, those nearest and dearest to you, - are in the terrorists gunsights and, at any moment, the Palestinian terrorist can pull the trigger.

No parent can ensure his childs safety. No one who leaves his own home can promise his safe return, nor can't he guarantee his family's safety as they ride in the family car, to and from the house."
For three paragraphs of script - there is not one fact. But instead, a loaded dialog purveying fear and attempting to convey how "evil" others are - and even naming the "enemy", that "Palestinan terrorist"

Watching that stuff is sickening - anyone who felt the heat of a terrorist blast, knows it's crap. (And yes, I have felt the blast of a terrorist bomb, but don't go around hating the bombers - they have a reason underneath and don't bomb for a hobby).

This is fairly disgusting material where no respectable media folks would wish to be associated. (The issue is not about terrorism or blame - that exists all over, but more the method of propaganda - it's fucking evil). This is yet another load of garbage produced by those with a Israeli biase and not unlike the 1000's of websites spewed out by the Israel govt (or representatives) in an attempt to convince the world Israel is a land of peace, high achievers and any other junk that will caste a good light. Typical organizations are memri.org, the claimed "Middle East Media Research Institute".

No broadcasting service on the planet would use this material - other than Israeli media (tho even that is doubtful). It is too way-out and designed to be inflamitory and is highly biased to warrant transmission.

And.. before you whine and moan, - I also spent three years editing content and learning the difference between responsible media production and fantasy. Simplied guide - if an alleged "documentary" title contains words like "hate" and "death" - chances are it is spewage - examples, "Goebbels - Doctor of Death" (produce during WW2 by a propaganda unit) and your "Seeds of Hatred" (produced by hell knows, but we can guess).

Try and get some balance in your viewing/reading material - hate to say it, but it's true - living in the US does not necessarily offer any balance of reality. The media overall is fucked and living off viagra ads with little or no indepth discussion on any topic - unless it's the "top ten movies of the week" or Lou Dobbs self-interest in the "midde class" dilemma and clueless about much else. And... don't rely on stupid internet websites to form your opinions - even worse - don't cut and paste from them

Splum... given the chance - visit Israel and Palestine - you will learn a lot and you will prob be shocked by some stuff. They are both interesting countries with many intelligent people
